I remember Ball of Confusion being on AM radio here.

How about this one : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=40JmEj0_aVM

I always liked that Temptations track but it was probably ahead of its time and I don't think it sold as well as their main hits.

Irritatingly I cannot find a playable link for Danice Macleod and BAMFF.

C_D that is one of my favourite CCR tracks from what is just about my favourite CCR album, but this is the one that I always think was underrated

Maybe this one?

Honestly, once you hear the song it will be less important.

The song is called "Crevice Tool." Which sounds like it could be rude but it isn't.

I had never heard that hagatha (and not sure I needed too )
Not a protest or a complaint but a bit of plaintive wondering https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O0jYMMTb0XU

The horrible thing about Crevice Tool is that I almost ALWAYS hear it in my head everytime I have to use the Crevice tool when I'm cleaning.

I love that video of Amy, obviously made before she became a skeletal, addicted mess. What a terrible waste.


Okay, so here's another protest song, with Queen channeling Monty Python. Or perhaps it's merely a complaint song. Or maybe just an excuse to dress in drag...

A waste indeed. And all those things I reckon for your link
I can well sympathise with the crevice tool. I hear this one in other situations https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=62eTq8ErUOQ

Lex here is another example of The Warnings softer side. I hope you like these acoustic versions.

Still no joy with the link hagatha: perhaps a copyright issue in this jurisdiction.

Thanks for those links SQF: having looked for material by The Warning on Amazon, I have been blessed with promotional emails for another older band named Warning and heavy metal bands Candlemass, Rivers of Nihil and Hooded Menace...!

A couple of links which brightened my day, the Stones from 1964 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QHjlnn8lKqk
and Hendrix from 1969 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_CJ1duSV04s

Hendrix never gets old. And I've always been a Stones fan.

The screaming, fainting fans on that Stones cut are hilarious. They got themselves worked up into such a hysterical frenzy one cannot imagine they actually heard the music, but it was the done thing back then.

You can never go wrong with The Stones.

This is probably my favorite Stones song : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T8wiV29Znxg


There's these : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_86iwnPKzBY

Creeping Dune, Sympathy for the Devil is my favourite Stones tune, too, followed closely by Jumpin Jack Flash.

There are too many good Stones tunes for me to pick a favorite but besides the ones listed I really like Angie, Wild Horses, Can't You hear Me Knocking, Gimme Shelter, Etc, Etc, Etc...........

I agree with SQF that it is hard to pick an absolute favourite Stones track from so many great ones, but Sympathy For The Devil and Gimme Shelter are certainly both up there: for me (depending to some extent on mood) Get off My Cloud still always hits the spot https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dEG0JIXuoFs ... on the other hand down and dirty like this also works for me https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PVZH7IdHP2E ... and this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DRot9IjNSso

C_D I could not open the Cisco Kid link, but presumably that was War (here with something else) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BsrqKE1iqqo

I don't remember hearing Shooting Star before: impressive stuff from them and REO Speedwagon!

Changing the mood a little with two tracks which my iPod picked out for me on the way to the shops today
Ruthie Foster https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JuYa66ojHzM and the PFC Band https://playingforchange.com/videos/back-roots-live-brazil/

That was War , yes . Try this link : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XjwkCeoDVJw


Shooting Star was a band from Kansas City Mo during the mid/late 70's to late 80's mostly . They still play out on occasion . Founding guitarist Van McClain passed a couple years back . I've seen REO at least 10 , but never with Gary RIchrath , unfortunately .

I would probably vote for this bit of Stones flavoured blues, and I agree with the first comment below the clip https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_lNP-x94-SE
Shooting Star I didn't know either, but REO I did. I loved their turn in Ozark.
This is the War track that I remember https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-Xs7NK-7B8. And who can resist Eric https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y4G3KPP1Nts. I was fortunate enough to see him on a low key Aussie pub tour about 20 years ago.

Eric Burden! More songs for my list.

Excellent reminders about Eric Burden: I had forgotten his brief stint with War.

I see that there is a new Cowboy Junkies album of covers coming out next month which may be of interest https://mailchi.mp/latentrecordings.com/new-album-from-cowboy-junkies?e=b99df10b3d and this is the single from it (David Bowie's) Five Years https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xOgviKgW9Qw

That cover of Five Years is very good.

I agree hagatha. And thanks for the heads up on the new album Lex.
A change of subject but I heard that the album this came from was released 50 years ago today https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dfmn9M6hXVI
I imagine just about everyone still has a copy

I remember that song from grade 10!

When I was a teenager, I had that Carole King album.

Tapestry and Pearl were the soundtrack to my fourteenth year.

I cannot remember whether I had the album but I always liked these two tracks in particular https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hqwLrJ6QWho and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=boKywUyuulk
